American Psycho 2 - Lions Gate Films And Bret Easton Ellis

american psycho | american psycho 2 | Bret Easton Ellis | films | movies | novel | writers

Ok.
This time I have nothing special to say, but I'm bored so I feel the need to blog. Alright, I got something.
Lions Gate Films.
So stupid.

If any of you are fans of Bret Easton Ellis then you may remember the movies based on his novels, Rules of Attraction and American Psycho. Both movies were made by Lions Gate Films. Ok, so when a writer has his novel made into a movie he sells the rights to his story. This means they can basically hack it up all they want.

Blog tags - The light bulb has finally turned on!

blog tags | blogging | writers | writing

Last night, I was looking over my blog tags at My Life as a Mother and Single Parent. I realized that I had way to many. They were stretching down half the page. I choose to display my blog tags for readers to find specific posts. I knew I was going to have to clean it up. It was a job I was not looking forward to.

The Writer’s Strike

Hollywood | strike | writers

You know, I really didn’t expect that it would still be going on! I assumed that Hollywood had learned it’s lesson the last time it was crippled and lost out on millions of dollars! Also, it’s just the way things are done. If a network is making money, hand over fist, off the work of writers and performers ~ well, it’s become a nonsense way of getting a rightfully deserved slice of the pie! I always think back to the strike by The Simpson’s performers. I mean, we’re talking about a multi-multi-million dollar franchise and they didn’t want to hand out raises????? It was just crazy! And, given the reason for this strike, it’s even crazier! How the hell can they expect to ignore the fact that writers are working on this ever expanding media and deserve to get paid for that?????? Heard about that ‘online only’ spin-off of Heroes????? That’s expected to bring in more money than most peoples homes are worth! Yet, the bastard executives feel that there’s no need to share the wealth!

Blogging with benefits?

blogger | blogging | blogs | make money blogging | writers

I really like blogging at places that have some kind of benefit to it. I am hoping some of you can share some places. Right now, besides Blogger Party, I use Blogger and Blog Charm. I used to use Soul Cast until I found out they automatically have the no follow tags on any links you place.

Social Network for writers

NETWORK | promote | social | traffic | writer | writers

There is a new social network for writers located at Writing For Us and it has a lot of cool things. It just started so there are a few adjustments that need to be made to it. The social network was created to connect all writers so that they may offer their tips on writing. The cool part is that you can promote your articles, e-books, blogs, sites, books, tips, and anything else that you want to promote. The social network is open to all writers and will be getting a lot more people within a week. I am working to promote the social network.

Time to Read

read | writers | writing

We just got back from a two week vacation which was much needed even though in the beginning I felt guilty for going away to have fun. The kind of fun we actually had involved eating, sleeping and reading. It's got me thinking since that reading is probably almost as important as eating and sleeping if you are a writer.

Now Writingup.com Down - Are its Members Running to WritingCampus.com ?

earn money | making money | writers | writing

Many writingup members are doing so as I have done. Writingup is being managed very badly now and members are fedup. Many have made Bloggerparty their final home and many are running elsewhere.

It is very difficult for a website to create a thunder on the web so fast as the WritingCampus.com is expected to do. It is a very fast and member-friendly site. Its simple scheme for earning a lot of money for its members is mind-boggling.

Members have three wonderful schemes for earning money.

1. Members get 60% amount of site's Adsense earnings. No other site is giving such a huge percentage.

2. There refferal program is also very remunerative.

3. The points that users get after so much hard work are also money-spinner for them. The more points they get the more they can earn.

If a member really works hard he/she gets almost 100% return from his blog. It is amazing and a fantastic work at home scheme.

What else does a blogger or a writer want? Even a student can turn his/her blog into a big money-spinner.

Vsit the site and get a membership just now (otherwise it will be too late):

WritingCampus.com
